![]() Please indulge a beginner to this forum with the answers to a couple questions-
(1) We are considering the purchase of a 1989 (Fox) GT. Did the factory offer various power options in the 5.0L? If so, what were they? If not, what is the nominal HP and torque of the factory motor? Flywheel? Rear Wheels? (2) Did the factory offer any options to the 5-speed, its gear ratios, or to the final drive ratio? If not, what are the factory standard ratios? Thanks in advance for any assistance. Ed LoPresti

![]() He did ask for final drive ratios which I also took to mean rear end ratios, but I SWEAR your first response had 3.73 as the standard factory ratio and I thought it was a typo. No matter, he got his info.
